| Description | Metastases to the larynx from distant primaries are rare. We report a case of a pulmonary epidermoid carcinoma metastatic to the larynx that simulated a primary cancer. A review of the literature showed nine previously reported cases of pulmonary metastases to the larynx—only two of them were epidermoid carcinomas.Treatment of a secondary lesion in the larynx is justified only when other organs have not been affected. The diagnostic and therapeutic considerations of this condition are discussed. |
